GIBSON ARKANSAS TEACHER SHOT TO DEATH Shot Down in Cold Blood on Street of Helena by Night Watchman for Saying He was a Man. WHAT DOES BRO. MORRIS THINK ABOUT THIS? Helena, Ark., Jan. 13.—One of the most dreadful tragedies the Race of the city of Helena has ever been called upon to witness is he killing of Prof. J. W. Gibson, Thursday night, December 23rd. man t was, to by strik and su hands manded It appears that Prof. Gibson came into the City on the Missouri Pacific train by the way of Brinkley from Cotton Plant where he was engaged in farming, which reaches this city about 7:35 in the evening, and after going to a barber shop, lower Cherry to be shaved, he returned to the corner of Cherry and Missouri street and was waiting for a street car to go to his home in Midland Heights, when he was accosted by the Night Watchman and asked by him to give him (the Watchman) the shot, gun, which he (Gibson) had. It is stated that Prof. Gibson told the watchman that he did not have any shells for the gun, and that the statement was made in a mild manner, and the watchman asked him why he did not have shells for the gun, and that Prof. Gibson replied that he did not need any. Then it is stated that the watchman asked Prof. Gibson what he had in his hand bag, and demanded it of Prof. Gibson and he gave it to him and the watchman proceeded to search the bag, finding in it, books and papers, he demanded to know of Prof. Gibson, "What kind of a nigger is you?" and Prof. Gibson replied that he was a Bill Proposed by William . Mallory Provides Big Penalties for Mobs William Mallory, 1400 Van Buren street, is at the head of a delegation of Topeka Negroes which will ask the legislature for drastic race laws. Heavy penalties for participation in mobs and fine and prison sentences for refusal to employ Negro labor are provided in the demands Mallory stated today that Senator Hugh T. Fisher, of Shawnee county, would be asked to introduce the race bills in the senate. Counties where Negroes are mobbed would be bound under the proposed laws to pay survivors $10,000. Persons participating in mobs would be made individually responsible and their property held subject to confiscation. Any employer or contractor who refuses to employ a Negro because he is not a member of a union or because of his color, would be subject to a fine of $500 to $1,0000 for the first offense. For subsequent offense, a prison sentence of five to ten years would be provided. Vocational training schools for Negroes in all cities of the first class are asked under the Mallory program. Daily Capital KANSAS INDUSTRIAL AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTE Movement for Better Race News on Foot in this City. At a meeting of the Topeka Ministerial Association an organization commenced pastors and princess of schools, a committee was appointed to assist the newspapers in getting "Good" stories about the Colored race instead of police stories or some stories which reflect upon the Colored race. All news concerning our people which is uplifting kindly report it to Prof. I. H Wade, 1100 College Avenue, Topeka, Kansas, or to Miss Mattie A. Perkins, co Topeka Plaindealer, Topeka, Kansas. Mrs. John M. Wright will give a vocal recital at the Kansas Industrial man the same as he (watchman) was, to which the watchman replied by striking Prof. Gibson in the face and snatching the shot gun from his hands and striking him and demanded him to pick up his hand bag and get in front of him and march up Cherry street. It is reported that sometime after this, Dr. J. W. Jennings, the druggist on Missouri street phoned to the jail and asked the watchman to release Prof. Gibson and that he, (Jennings) would see that he would be in court when wanted, and he replied that "I have just killed that d—— Nigger." The body was turned over to the Undertaking establishment of Harraway and Cunningham and held by them against the wishes of the relatives and others interested until late Friday afternoon when in order to get the body, the relatives had to pay for the embalming of the body and buy a coffin from them. An inquest was begun over the remains Saturday afternoon and was adjourned over Tuesday, Dec. 28th.

C., Jan. 14.—For the first time in a number of years, Congressman from the South, who are holding their memberships because of disfranchisement of Colored Americans, "had their feelings hurt," and became noticeably peeved, in the hearing before the Congressional Committee. The hearings which were resumed immediately after the holidays, have been filled with startling events, from "thunder" of dark Americans, to the wild howls of southern congressmen refusing to have their pictures taken of committee meetings, "with Nogroes as a background," as they put it. Among those who have offered evidence before the committee are James Weldon Johnson, Wm. Pickens, Walter F. White, James A. Cobb and George H. Murray, all officials of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. William Pickens, field Secretary, always courteous but painfully frank, seemer to "get the goat" of the southerners more than any others. Dr. Pickens brought out the following facts: "In the election of members of Congress, one man in Georgia outvotes 4 men in Pennsylvania; or five men in California; or 6 men in Kansas; or 7 men in Colorado; 8 men in Delaware; 9 men in Indiana; or 10 men in New Mexico 'This showed up the unfair political dealings of the south, and this extra voting power of the one white man in the South is due to the disfranchisement of Colored people. There is just one state worse than Georgia in this suffrage failure, the state where I was born, South Carolina." One man wanted to know: 'Did you hear of any WHITE MEN who were prevented from voting in South Carolina," trying to corr'use the issue when Pickens was talking of the treatment of Colored women and men in Columbia, S. C. He immediately replied: "I heard of one white man who was disfranchised, in Virginia. He was a Republican. The three Registrars asked him as an examination to name the five members of the state board of education, and the old man actually managed to name three of them. They disfranchised him. Then he went to his lawyer, another white man, and complained His lawyer went to the judge who had appointed those registrars, and without disclosing the matter at first, asked that judge to give him the names of the members of the state board of education—and the judge could not name more than one." --- (By The Associated Negro Press) Detroit, Mich. Jan. —Dr. James L. Henderson, was elected Councilman by the Hamtramck village council, to fill the vacancy caused by the failure Claston M. Wentworth, white, who was elected councilman at the 1st election, to attend any meetings of the Council for several weeks. Dr. Henderson has been a resident of this place for three years. He is a graduate of the Detroit College of Medicine. --- (By The Associated Newspaper) Sacramento, Cal., Jan. 11—Mrs. A. H. Rums, white of the Franklin school District, in seeking for the Board of Education several English the location of a site for the school, also voiced her objections to having Orientals and Negroes attend the same school as white children. "We have several Orientals all Colored pupils in the school and I should say that all Colored children be sent to one special school," declared she. "I believe the board should establish a school for Orientals, Negroes and all Colored people and keep the other schools for white children only." Shawnee County Representatives Sounded on Equal Rights Laws. (By The Associated Negro Press) Jefferson City, Mo. Jan. 14, -Walter M. Moore, of St Louis, the first Negro in the history of Missouri to be elected a member of the lower house of the legislature, has been assigned a prominent seat in the hall of the House of Representatives by Commissioner of the Permanent Seat of Government Judge Louis Ratliff. The seat assigned to the St Louis Representative for the session is No. 70, and in the first row on the main aisle and directly facing the speaker. It is a position in the House that is always much sought after, particularly by old members who expect to take an active part in legislation and may frequently desire recognition of the speaker. Representative Moores' desk was buried in flowers when he was inaugurated and returned to his place --- (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill. Jan. 14. -From a residence prayer meeting organization to an incorporated religious body, worshipping in an edifice valued at $360 00000 may sound like fiction, but it is the actual story of Pilgrim Baptist Church, Chicago. The congregation has recently purchased the magnificent Jewish Tem- The 1921 session of the Kansas legislature, as for as the Colored man is concerned is indeed, a tame affair. A few of our women are holding jobs in the Cloak rooms and gallery. About fifteen men are employed in the House and Senate. We presented a copy of the New York Equal Rights law to our Representatives of Shawnee county, both House and Senate, who after holding a conference, decided that the Civil Rights Bill, which is now on the Statute Books of the state, would be upheld by our Supreme Court and that we had better try that out first. Senator Fisher guaranteed it and said further that he would help in the case now pending in the Shawnee County court It was our contention that the law was weak and why not substitute the New York law. They further stated the law was too drastic pertaining to bath houses and barbershops. We stated that the law regulates all business from railroads down, then why should hotels, sods, fountains or other places be immunized LITTLE ROCK CAPTURES Capitol City of Arkansas Will Entertain Sunday School Workers for 1921 Nashville, Tenn., Jan 18th. (National Negro Press Association Service) Little Rock is to entertain the 1921 session of the Sunday School Congress forces June 4th to 13th. It was confirmed by the meeting of the Board held in this city today. Five cities were running neck and neck for these honors. They were Muskogee, Okla., Columbia, S. C., Galveston, Texas, St Louis, No., and Little Rock. It developed that the matter had been before the Board for the third time and that the decision was only reached today. Notices were at once sent to the offices at Arkansas conveying the information to them. The Secretary of the movement, Rev. Henry A. Boud, and the Chairman, Dr. C. H. Clark, authorized the announcement and the declare that in all probability there will be no reduced round trip rates for any religious gatherings. They contemplate an increased at- tendance over last year. It will be remembered that just a year ago this meeting was held in Springfield, ill. where memorial services were held ple, Indiana Avenue and East 33rd St. for a cash consideration of $75,000, and the opening week has just closed. Dr. S. E. J. Watson, who became pastor of the church last May is responsible for the success. A number of the leading officers of the church, including Dr. H. C. Morris, of Little Rock, president of the National Baptist Convention; Dr. Jordan, secretary of the foreign missionary board and Mrs. Layton, of the women's division of Phila, together with the leading white Baptist officials of Chicago, ministers of various denominations, business men and the public generally assisted inthe opening. The building is modern in every particular, has an unequalled location, and is another strong bit of evidence of what the migration is doing in the North. SEATTLE, WASH. January 13th, 1921. Dear Editor: We desire to announce through your paper the serious illness of Mrs. G. W. Dupee, formerly of Jefferson City, Mo. Very truly yours. Mrs. Ida B. Greene, (daughter) 512 E. Union St. Seattle, Wash. County Repre- Sounded on rights Laws. Their reply was that they wanted to hear from the Colored people from the other sections of the state. To this we assured them, that we repre- sented them and that we were in one accord on the matter of equal rights. There is a set of white Republicans of the new type, who considers the Colored American as of little consequence after their ballot is cast to put some white person in office. The New York law is just what every fair minded white person would stand for, if they mean equality before the law. So we say let something be enacted into law which will stand the test of the civil rights of an American citizen. The Civil Rights law of Kansas is vague, will not hold in court and any officer who is opposed to its enforcement can very easily dodge behind it. Let every Colored citizen write to the members of the legislature from their district and urge upon them the passage of the Equal Rights law Also write Nick Chiles, editor of the Topeka Plaindealer, Topeka, Kansas for the late Abraham Lincoln. More than twenty thousand Sunday Schools and one million five hundred thous and Sunday School workers are affected by this call. SALINA. KANSAS A number of friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Hite, 312 N. 5th street on Sunday evening January 9th, 1921, to celebrate the 21st birthday anniversary of Mr. Theodore, Pa mound Hill, given him by Miss Matter Williams. The affair had been planned and arranged for without the knowledge of the home one who displayed great surprise at the occasion. Beautiful and useful gifts were received and the evening was spent very pleasantly. Serving was very artificially arranged by Misses Stella Murrie, Patsa, Smith Clara Harrison, Raywell Parker, Elnora Whitney, Geneva Haynes, Agnes Hudson, Lulu Williams, Geneva Murrie and Mattie Williams.

The cold blooded manner in which Prof Gibson was assassinated at Helena, Ark, gives the lie to the doctrine preached by E C. Morris, that the Negro should stay in the south. But what does Morris care, is he not on the pay roll? How long will the Race be duped by this element of preachers? Just one thing after another! Y. M. C. A, Hospital, School stink, Loblest and library. Just to keep the "Nolse up" We will wait for results. The Spencer Chapel, M. E. church is about to rise from a long slumber. They will now start the erection of the church and will buy more property. The "Common herd" is finding out that the Negro preachers are assisting the south to keep the Negro in his place. We all regret to see our tender youths sent to the Reform schools, but too often it is the result of a trifling parent. Mrs Pearl Hancocks of Dallas, Texas, has bought a home in Gary. It is wrong for the preachers to continue an open house all the year and import other preachers in the city at the expense of his congregation. This present system will have to get the court to brace it up thru a Blue Sky Law. The thinking public is tired of this procedure. The Negro Baptists led by the "Broken Idol" at Helena, have sold out to the Southern Baptists, boots, breaches and buttons. You can now understand the opposition to the Negro leaving the South. Keep the Negro fed upon denomination "swill." It does not matter whether he is a christian or not. Make him a strong Methodist or a Baptist so he will be an easy mark to the desire of the ministers. The Collate District Sunday School and B, Y P, U. Board held a spirited meeting at Dean Chapel, last week. Some of the leading lights of the denomination were present. Among them were the Revs. Love, Stewart, Johnson, Bryant and others, who made good reports. The Rev Turner of Vian, presided. No! Harry, my son, there will be no Y, M C, A Just an overflow of sanctified energy and palpitation of the "Ego's" Only 49 Negro churches within a radius of 8 miles. Two more to be built this spring. No room for hospitals, Diy Nurseries or Y. M. C. A.s. The Sawner Building will be ready and occupied by Colored after July 1st of this year. Standpipe Hill is still in the throes of a revival, a big pistol' from Texas is furnishing the noise. The Indians are trying to revive their old regime of government, to grab a few political plums. They have fastened the murder of Majestic, the tailor, on a Negro. The Negro failed to account for his whereabouts on the night of the murder. James Tuple and Booker T. Riley were arrested for the murder of old man Pulks. Mrs Bessie Lyons, of Okmulgee, passed thru Saturday on her way to o on school at Adamson, Okla. Ruth, the daughter of Prof. and Mrs J H Mason, is better after an illness of several weeks. Mr Kimmon of Gary, Ind. and Miss Leontine Scott, of this city, were married and left for Gary, Ind. List Sunday morning. Lawyer W. J Owens returned this week from Gary, Ind. The Negroes of Muskogee are still being film flammed on the school question. Last year $120000 was raised for the continuance of the schools. This year is the move to send a lobbiest to hang around the State Capitol. How long! Oh, how long will the people stand the gaff?

By GEE KAY We welcome with great interest the newsy little trade journal, the Five Points Bulletin, edited and published by our friend and brother printer, John II. Lange, of Denver, Colo., who has recently opened up a print shop in the heart of the Black business and resident district of that growing western city. The make up is as good as any we have seen coming from any shop, anywhere. It is a new step in the life of the business field in that section and should be a blessing in that particular, and ought to make more and better business for the merchants and men of business in and around Five Points. We grew up in that vicinity and are pleased to note the vast improvement, as well as the creditable showing being made by the race in that locality. We also credit the management of Poro College, who is always doing something 'big', in the introduction of its splendid house journal, The Por Purpose. This in itself should go a long way in raising the standard of efficiency, as well as to create a spirit of team work, upon which all large and growing concerns are dependent. The journal is clean, newsy and full of racial inspiration, Muom credit is due Mr. and Mrs. Malone for this important step NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Hon. T. W. Bell, of Leavenworth, Kaneas, was employed by the Kansas Defense Society, of which Editor Nick Chiles is president, to obtain a writ of habeas corpus to release the soldiers of the 24th Infantry, who are now confined in the Federal Prison at Leavenworth. As we have collected enough funds to take this case through all the courts which have jurisdiction, I am suggesting that the public to send all money collected from now on will be used in the Dlaine riot case of Arkansas. We wish to say Mr. Bell should have his appeal ready to file in the U. S. Court in the next few days. We now have enough money collected to pay the attorney fees and the costs of the case. Any one collecting funds for this case is at horizo and in so doing is liable to criminal action Prehistoric Kansas Dinosaur Society Kansas Dinosaur Society IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF SHAWNEE COUNTY, KANSAS James E.

ING WHITE PAPERS. Why would Colored people continue to read white newspapers, when they never see anything good in them about themselves. All they get from them are rumours of lynchings, criminals and oplate addicts of the darker race. Surely you could get enough of this kind of news matter from the Colored paper and at the same time give more Colored people employment and above all else get more truth about the details of our race. If there is ever any good done by our people and it is mentioned by the white editor, you have to take a magnifying glass to find it and it is always in a few words, in a little corner, in the last column on the last page, "without a title or a headig" The only time they put you on the front page, Mr. Colored Man is when you use opiates or after you are dead at stake by fire. Did you ever stop to think of this seriously? If you did then why did you did that newspaper? Since you know that all the good people are in the other race and all the bad ones in your race, then is it necessary for you to read about us the first thing in the morning before breakfast and the last thing at night after supper. Oh, if just the Colored people in Topeka would stop reading that Daily Capital and State Journal, they would save not less than a thousand dollars per month to give to our own race and build another equal to the Boyd Publishing plant. The Colored Editor in every town is the only person who should read a white man's note. He's the man who knows just how to translate it for you. In conclusion, I will say, that the law should hold the druggist who sells the opiates a worse violator of the law than the addicts of the opiate, the man who lynches a worse criminal than the man who insults, since all men insult in some form if not by violent attack by slow intellectual process, but all men will not lynch. The best thing to use the white newspaper for in your home is to kindle a fire just as it starts a fire between the two races without a match I am, LINCOLN DAY CLUB BANQUET AND PROGRAM, FEBRUARY 12th.

Mr. George Kerford of Atchison, Kansas, was in the city Tuesday on business. (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill, Jan. 14,—"They can't hang me, God won't let em," said Grover Cleveland Redding, foremost figure in the "Abyssinian Riot" here last June Redding had been found guilty and sentenced to hang together with Oscar McGavitt, his chief Lieutenant, for participation in the street brawl in the heart of the Colored section, at which time Robert L. Rose, a sailor and Joseph Hart, a cigar clerk, both white, had been killed, and Patrolman Joseph Owens, Col, severely wounded. The other five defendants were found guilty. They are Harry Lee, Edward Rush, James Briggs, Dennis Brown and Allen Willis. The riot occured during a parade led by Redding and Jonah, and organized for the purpose of recruiting Negroes to the back to Abyssinia movement, of which Redding was the head and self acclaimed prophet of God. Exercises followed the parade and Redding burned an American flag at the corner of Indiana avenue and 35th street. Rose, who was in uniform, interfered and was shot. Mob hysteria following in which Hart was also plain. Thruout his trial Redding feigned insanity and it was necessary to tie him down on several occasions when he tried to fight with court attaches. Redding's insanity that was shot fired Wednesday when he was 60. Known at allistist to be told Redding had admitted the drunken to bear its only chance to the tone. Many people have ever felt the opinion that Riddling is really insane in his actions and speech are very erratic. Riddling handed a Colored reporter the card of one of the assailant state's attorney's and told him that the State's attorney was his lawyer. One of the defendants asked the same reporter, 'to go and see my boss and have him come and get me out.' They seemed to have no comprehension of the extent of the charge against them. They are simply people of low intelligence and it is still that a white agitator known the country over as 'Jonah' who was their leader and who was arrested at the time of the that in which he was one of the chief pirates but who was latter released fixed them with the fool Ih zeal which led to the trouble Jenah is said to be still organizing Abyssinian movements then out the country Dorsey Green, President T.
